you can make a bastard pack good enough for any height you want.. if you want 2 inches i recommend getting another XJ main leaf, cutting off the eyes and putting it under your main leaf

No promises but usually that's the case. It all depends on how worn out the leafs are though. I would grab a whole pack at the junk yard and just start with the main and see how it is. You don't want to make it too stiff, then it won't flex well.

Went to potato ridge today, it was really fun running all the washes. Lockers make all the difference in the world.

Big thanks to hector (JDCravin) for letting me and joe use your garage and tools to get our fenders trimmed. Looks a hell of a lot better and now I don't have to worry about popping my drivers side fender flare back on every 10 min when I'm flexing lol. And thanks again for some bomb a$$ lunch!!!
